Shakespeare wrote over 30 plays in his time as a playwright. He is known for his imagery writing style, always finding new and more interesting ways to describe even the smallest of tasks. In Macbeth, "he appears to be more rich and varied in his use of the English language. Macbeth has been said to been written more imaginative, and more unapproachable by any other writer in a single play."(Spurgeon, 309)
Ross is saying Macbeth is the new Thane of Cawdor, but Macbeth says that the Thane of Cawdor lives. "The Thane of Cawdor lives. Why do you dress me in borrowed robes?" (I, iii, 109). He does not believe that he is the new Thane of Cawdor, because he is not yet aware of the events that have happened.
Macbeth is daydreaming and has forgotten the tell the other men they are allowed to leave. "New honors came upon him, like our strange garments, cleave not to their mold but with the aid of use," (I, iii, 148). Banquo is talking about the way Macbeth is daydreaming, and the men need to be dismissed.
Macbeth is thinking and murdering Duncan. "He hath honored me of late, and I have bought golden opinions from all sorts of people which would be worn now in their newest guests, not cast aside so soon," (I, vii, 33). He is talking about the good opinions people have of himself since he has been made Thane of Cawdor, and would rather delay the death of duncan.
In the following act, MacDuff and Ross are talking about Duncan's murder and where they will go from this point on. MacDuff says, "Well, may you see things well done there, adieu, lest our old robes sit easier than our new!"(II, iv, 38). Macbeth's reign is shown versus Duncan's reign.
The Scottish leaders are talking about Macbeth with whom he is involved. Caithness says, "He cannot buckle his distemped cause, within the belt of rule,"(V, ii, 15). Caithness thinks there is something wrong with Macbeth, and thinks that it will bring the end of his rule.
